商品簡介
Zepeda (educational administration and policy, U. of Georgia) provides a textbook on instructional supervision in preK-12 schools for prospective administrators and students taking courses on instructional supervision and evaluation. She outlines tools and approaches to conducting classroom observations that support teacher learning and the skills and dispositions needed to be an effective supervisor. She examines motivation, the principles of adult learning, and how supervisors can use them when working with teachers before, during, and after classroom observations, as well as the use of action research, peer coaching, mentoring, and the portfolio to complement observations, and strategies for working with marginal teachers. She ends with a chapter on ideas and approaches to professional development. This edition adds more tools and case studies, suggested fieldwork, and extended reflections. Each chapter ends with summaries and activities. Annotation Ac2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
